▶Genome-wide analysis of polymorphisms associated with cytokine responses in smallpox vaccine recipientsAssociationN=1,000Kennedy RB et al.(2012)· Human Genetics
Genome-wide association study identifying SNPs associated with cytokine responses to vaccinia virus in 1,000 smallpox vaccine recipients. Multiple SNPs achieved genome-wide significance (p<5×10⁻⁷) for Th1 cytokines (IL-2, TNFα, IL-12p40) and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IFNα, IL-6). Notable findings include rs16948200 in NGFR (12-fold difference in IL-2 secretion between genotypes), rs4251424 in IRAK4 (associated with TNFα), and rs2255327 in BLK (2-fold higher IL-6 in heterozygotes).
About CNTN5
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, and contactin family, which mediate cell surface interactions during nervous system development. This protein is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored neuronal membrane protein that functions as a cell adhesion molecule. It may play a role in the formation of axon connections in the developing nervous system. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
